♂?，，

  Chu Kui was startled like most girls, her first thought was to scream, and as soon as she heard herself say it, Zhu Yuxi immediately stopped in his tracks. However, that was just an unconscious action, not because he was really scared of her. Seeing the rare panic on Chu Kui's face, he smiled and said, "Third sister, don't be afraid, I won't eat you."

  Chu Yunqing, who was behind the screen, was blown awake by a gust of cool wind. Her whole body felt numb and painful, her legs were still trembling slightly, and she had no strength at all. She turned her head with difficulty, but didn't see Zhu Yuxuan. She panicked, gritted her teeth, and propped herself up halfway. As she turned her head again, voices came from outside, making her jump in surprise and almost cry out.

  It's San Jie Chu Ke's voice

  "...dare to come over and I'll shout" San Jie's voice was shrill with indignation

  Chu Yunqing hadn't had time to react when Zhu Yuxiu's voice came from outside. She almost let out a cry of surprise, biting her lip hard to hold it back. She was bewildered, propping herself up shakily and sitting there in a daze. The undergarment that Zhu Yuxiu had taken off earlier was thrown far away, but the outer skirt was still on the footstool. With great effort, she bent down to pick it up and wrapped it around her body, listening intently to the conversation between the two people outside...

  Zhu Yifei heard the slight movement on the couch inside, and the smile at the corner of his mouth grew thicker. He stopped in his tracks, not taking another step forward, lest he scare Chu Keqi into doing something desperate.

  "I won't move, nor will I force you, there are just some things I want to say."

  "Have someone open the door for me," Chu Ke said angrily, her heart already cursing loudly.

  "Have someone open the door." Zhu Yuxu was not in a hurry at all, his voice was neither fast nor slow, and his deep, black eyes were filled with smiling intent as he looked at her.

  Chu Ke's heart secretly asked his mother and ancestors again, the flames of anger had already reached his throat, and he was about to erupt in a loud voice: "Speak!"

  Zhu Yifei still didn't see her furious expression, but instead remained calm and smiling, his eyes filled with emotions as he looked at her. He smiled faintly and opened his mouth: "I know it's because of my previous attitude that you have an opinion about me. I explained it to you, but you wouldn't listen. However, back then, I really didn't have any thoughts about the three of you, so naturally, my attitude towards the three of you was the same. It wasn't intentional teasing, and if you thought I had teasing intentions, it's because..." He smiled: "Chu Yunting and Chu Yunqing indeed had intentions towards me, which I understood, but I pretended not to understand. In fact, thinking about it, if I didn't pretend to be clueless, the two of them would have misunderstood my intentions and done something unbecoming, wouldn't that be even worse? Last time, Chu Yunqing intentionally tripped, and I saw it too - she's so brainless, it's very possible for her to do something excessive and embarrassing."

  Behind the screen, Chu Yunqing suddenly felt as if she had fallen into an ice cellar, chilled to the bone from the inside out. Her body trembled involuntarily, her eyes fixed on the screen with a fierce stare, as if she could burn it down and kill the man behind it.

  That person continued to speak, sincere and deeply emotional: "Ordinary men, when faced with a woman who takes the initiative to offer herself, generally won't refuse... Of course I'm not, and I like it. Other women, I regard as worthless, and wouldn't give them a second glance. Those who take the initiative to offer themselves are even less valuable. Kejie, why bother being angry with me for the sake of those people who are already worthless in my eyes? Just now at the Cloud Bamboo Pavilion, you also misunderstood me. I knew that Chu Yunting was going to harm me, but I didn't say anything... Because I thought, if I were to be harmed and lose face in front of everyone, I would still go forward and help her up. In front of everyone, such an action not only restored my dignity but also let Chu Yunting know that no matter what method she used, she couldn't destroy us. Isn't this much better than arguing with her and making things clear?"

  "You're really self-righteous, self-important and overly emotional. I don't want to listen anymore!" Chu Ke's tone was vicious as she turned around and pushed the door with force, but it didn't budge. She kicked it in anger and turned back to Zhu Yuexu, shouting: "Open the door for me right now!"

  Zhu's mouth flattened, his expression seemingly helpless as he nodded, but his eyes still held a hint of amusement: "Alright... But if we open the door, I'm sure we'll see the Duchess and Old Lady Chu coming this way. Are you certain you want to open it?" He smiled happily: "What can be done? The two of us secretly meeting here, only to be caught red-handed by the Duchess and Old Lady... It seems like you'll have to marry me."

  Chu Ke's face suddenly turned pale, and she grasped a glimmer of hope. She rushed to the window, carefully opened it a crack, and peeked outside. As soon as she did, her head spun with a loud 'buzz'.

  A group of people walking towards the gate, aren't they the King's wife and Old Lady Chu? Chu Keqin was so scared that she immediately shrunk back a bit, Zhu Yuxu behind her burst out laughing: "Good sister, don't hide, how can you hide anyway? The two of us are meant to be together, the King's wife and Old Lady Chu also approve, if there's any trouble later, I'll take responsibility for it, just say I forced you to come"

  Chu Xue didn't pay attention to him at all, stood up and took another look. The county princess and Old Lady Chu both had serious expressions, following a maid's lead, hastily walking this way. Just this brief delay, they were already almost at the door.

  Her head buzzed loudly, her tense body trembling, she turned around to take a look inside, saw the screen and rushed towards it without thinking.

  Zhu Ye didn't think much, and with a faint smile, he came over to block the way: "It's just this small place, can't hide..." Before he finished speaking, his face had already changed greatly. A very light 'ting' sound was heard by his ear, and a cold light rushed towards him. He was so shocked that he stumbled and almost fell onto the bed.

  Chu Xue didn't really want to hurt him, just wanted to force him back. In the blink of an eye, Zhu Yuxuan retreated in disarray, and Chu Xue had already dodged behind the screen.

  However, she did not expect that behind the screen there was a couch, and on the couch lay a woman who was almost equivalent to being naked, which scared her so much that she jumped up on the spot and let out a loud cry.

  Zhu Yingtai heard this exclamation and hastily got up, hurriedly saying: "Listen to my explanation..."

  Just as the word "explain" came out, he rushed to the side of the screen, and the front door was already open. Chu Yunqing's maid Jiali was saying: "The young lady suddenly fainted..." Then, as expected, she saw Zhu Yuxu, made a move that had been thought out beforehand, and exclaimed: "Third Master, how are you here?"

  Zhu Yifei was really flustered where he stood, which happened to be a spot where he could see both the front and inside. He turned his head to take a look, and the princess and old madam had already spotted him. He turned back again, only to see an even more shocking scene.

  Chu Kei's hand pushed against the open window frame, and with a light leap, she had already jumped out of the pavilion. In an instant, she was gone.

  Zhu Yifei's eyes widened in shock. How could he have imagined that his third cousin, who was slightly breathless when walking and had a delicate constitution like a willow swaying in the wind, would be capable of such an action? In an instant, he understood that at this moment, even if he had a hundred mouths, he still wouldn't be able to explain himself clearly.

  He suddenly regained his composure, slowly turned around, and as he did, his cold eyes swept over Chu Yunqing who was still lying limp on the couch. He turned back, a smile already restored to his face.

  The king's wife suddenly said, "Hui Xuan, how are you here?" She looked suspicious, just now she had clearly heard a woman's scream, could it be that her son was actually here... She gritted her teeth in anger.

  Zhu Yifei first warned with a glance at Jiali, then smiled and said: "I heard that the fourth sister is not feeling well, resting on this side. I told my older sister, and she has already sent someone to pick her up. The child had a bit too much to drink, so he came over to rest..."

  On the surface calm as this, but in fact tense to the point of almost jumping out. In such a situation, if Chu Yun Qing makes a sound or Jia Li insists on going back to take a look, then she can only admit defeat...

  Things have come to this point, it's really because he was too confident.

  Originally, he didn't have to fall for it, but he went along with it and took Chu Yunqing because he wanted to humiliate her and make her hear with her own ears the deep and affectionate words he had said to Chu Keqian. He wanted her to know that he, Zhu Yuxu, was not someone who could be designed and trapped by just anyone, especially Chu Yunqing, who had done such a foolish thing. Such a foolish person actually thought they could scheme against him? Did she think that by dedicating herself to him, she could grasp him? If the master were to harden his heart, no matter who it was, he wouldn't let them make him go soft.

  He said those words, some true and some false, maybe even he himself didn't know, but he just wanted Chu Yunqing to hear. After hearing those words, even if she died of shame, she would never let Chu Kejie know what was behind her back. That's the way women think, Chu Yunqing wouldn't let her love rival see herself being abandoned like that. And wasn't her maid going to find the Duchess and Old Lady Chu to come and interrupt them? It just so happened that he used this opportunity to make the Duchess and Old Lady Chu stumble upon him and Chu Kejie alone here.

  At that time, even if the county king's wife and Chu Lao Furen scolded or reprimanded them a few times, the fact that the two must get married could not be changed.

  He had already thought it through, even if everyone discovered Chu Yunqing on the couch behind him, he could still deny it and frame Chu Yunqing for having a secret meeting with someone else. With Chu Ke'er present, who would suspect that he was the one who was there earlier? Even if Chu Yunqing tried to explain herself, he could just insist that it wasn't him, and she would likely be flustered and might even knock over a table in her agitation. How could she possibly shift the blame onto him, who remained calm and composed?

  Besides, as long as there is a princess of the county, she will definitely not let such things be dragged onto her own head.

  He thought everything was settled, and so did everyone else. Everything was in his hands, Chu Ke'er couldn't escape, she could only obediently marry him. But now...

  It seems like I'm the one who can't run away...

  It is by.
